We built an operational flight tracking and weather system that uses 
Postgresql,
http://www.sonalysts.com/wXstation

One data feed (FAA ASDI) uses both aircraft registration
numbers (tail numbers)  and airline-assigned flight numbers.  Typically
if you have the latter, you won't get the former.   This feed only has
information for flights in the U.S. or to/from the U.S.  The data feed also
includes flight plans, so it wouldn't be too hard
to build up a flight number schedule over a short period of time.

Outside the U.S. the problem is more difficult.
